    Duck balut. The guy scam me. I told him I want young and small ones. He gave me the big one. Look scary. It wasting my money.

    So disappointed. The guy scammed me. I told him I want young n small balut. He gave me fully developed duck balut. It look scary n waste of my money. Should be honest to your bussiness.

    Are you truly Asian if you've never had balut? There are only a few places in OC that sells balut and this is my go to spot for some. I got some for the family since I know some of them enjoy it. We paid about $13 for 6 duck eggs. For $1.75 extra you can get some rau ram to eat along side with your eggs as well. The eggs turned out to be pretty good. They weren't too old or young and were full of flavor. This is a grab and go type of spot. Parking isn't great since it's super tight and not a lot but you can usually get a spot since no one stays around long.

    Young Duck eggs $ 2.29 each 2.19.24

    I've had this Balut shop bookmarked forever. Finally came to pick up some Balut after lunch 2.19.24 They didn't have any more chicken Balut available. Man associate said they'll have chicken balut eggs in 2 weeks. So we were only having the option of Duck Balut eggs for $ 2.29 each. He asked if we wanted young ones. And we preferred the young eggs. bought a dozen count. The duck balut was perfect. The bones weren't fully developed hard. They sell the vegetable herb that is enjoyed with balut here for almost $ 2 a bunch. Also a drinking water shop too along w freshly squeeze sugar cane juice. Parking is really minimal here and it's in the area of warehouse business like. I'll definitely be back here to get my balut fix.

    Duck balut $2.29 each / chicken balut Do note a communication barrier here , the elder gentleman speaks very limited English. Parking spaces limited , people here don't linger. So wait a little for an empty spot . Unfortunately we came late in the afternoon and the chicken balut is sold out . He has mostly the pinoy balut (I recall from different places explanation , no embryo just the yolk only. ) We didn't buy anything this time . Next trip stop here first thing in the morning before running my other errands .

    Anyone who wants to buy Balut this is your place. I went in to show a friend of what the place looks like. They offer regular non-fertilized eggs such as chicken eggs, ducks eggs, quail eggs, and today never seen them before goose eggs. I marvel at them because they are lovely to look at. Great place if you're looking for balut.

    Long awaited review as I have been coming here for decades. There are so many markets all over…read moreLittle Saigon, however, I keep gravitating here. Seems to me, it is less crowded than other markets. (If I can avoid crowds, I will). It was Tet New Year season and I needed to get a few ingredients for some dishes I planned to cook. My first priority was the fresh oxtail in the meat department. I have gone to many markets for this cut and it seems this is the best place for a ~2 pound tray of mixed size tails. The fat is all trimmed off, as opposed to other markets that leave a fat layer behind that you are paying for. It also depends on if you prefer leaner tails. Next, the produce section. I picked up some cailan (Chinese broccoli). For the most part, the Asian veggies are pretty fresh - since there is a higher turnover rate of Asian veggies in this area. It was good on this day. So many varieties of green veggies, I love it! The fruit section is also pretty impressive. Papayas, guanabana, dragon fruit, pommelo, tangerines, korean pear, manzano bananas,...Not your ordinary apples and oranges. Dry goods include a plethora of rice, including Thai sweet rice, Japanese rice (perfect for sushi rice), red rice (known for high fiber and low glycemic index)... Who likes Chinese Style sausage? Me! It is called Lap Xuong, in Vietnamese. I love making Thai sweet rice and serve with thinly sliced Lap Xuong - my mom fed us kids this often! And yes, they have a good supply of this here, so stock up, it will last forever in the pantry. Vietnam is the world's second largest coffee producer. You will see the crazy amount of coffee products sold here, for example, Vinacafe. Most are packed as individual serving packets which includes cream and sugar. Too convenient for consumption! Also perfect to have in your pantry. You shall be impressed with the chili aisle. Sambal of all kinds. You can make an awesome pot of chili with this heat! Lots of Lunar New Year items too. I am sure there are still some left for purchase if you didn't have a chance to pick some up yet. They do have a liquor department too. Asians can drink iykyk. If you do, please don't drink and drive. Parking is ok, if you go shopping off peak hours. Market is on Beach Boulevard and it could get pretty busy so plan wisely. So enjoy your visit. It is always fun to discover a new product and try something you have never eaten before!

    I recommended this seafood market to my daughter when she was planning a sushi night with her…read moreroommate, and it turned out to be a fantastic choice. She went in looking for sushi-grade salmon, and she couldn't be happier with the quality. The salmon was incredibly fresh, healthy-looking, and full of flavor. She prepared a few different dishes with it, including sushi cuts and a spicy salmon bowl, and both turned out absolutely delicious. It's always nice to find a place you can trust for quality seafood, especially when it's being used for raw dishes like sushi. Highly recommend this market for anyone looking for fresh, high-quality fish.

    I'd round my 4.5 up to a 5. The owners were incredibly kind and took the time to answer all of our…read morequestions from how best to enjoy the fish to explaining what they currently had in stock. We ordered the toro, tuna, salmon, and yellowtail and I can definitely see myself coming back here often. If I'm being completely honest, the toro didn't quite meet my expectations, which is the only reason I hesitated to give it a perfect score. That said, the salmon and especially the yellowtail were outstanding, it was fresh, flavorful, and everyone enjoyed it. I'm already looking forward to coming back to try the shrimp or scallop next time. Currently most items are frozen but I hope they can offer some fresh options to better enjoy day off and smaller quantities (half pounds) so I can buy a little bit of everything. Anyways our sushi night at home that fed three people to the brim was around ~90 and was a success thanks to D&D seafood

The savory treats were breaded in bread crumbs and the ham and cheese tasted like it was filled with a cheesy bearnaise, while the chicken tasted like a crispy, chicken pot pie. This is a small store and it's a great place to find items for an authentic Portuguese meal. I would come again for these egg tarts, which has sweetness that's completely different than the Taiwanese variety I grew up with in the San Gabriel valley.
